After faking her death in interstellar space, the powerful woman disguised herself as a man and went

Leng Ran was packed up by the medics and thrown onto the accompanying medical spaceship. Although she was no longer on the main battlefield, she couldn't help but frequently look back to observe the situation.

Although the energy circuits on the Void Beast's body have dimmed, they can still continue to open space tunnels as long as they are not completely severed.

However, the Nirvana Mech Corps had already reached the front, and if Wei Shenghuang were to make a move, it should be enough to destroy the passage.

Seeing Leng Ran fidgeting in her wheelchair, the medical robot gently reminded her, "Please do not move."

"Trading injury for injury, Mo Li, you're ruthless enough to yourself." Zhao Yuheng squinted at Leng Ran, who was receiving emergency treatment on the medical spaceship. "You knew perfectly well that distance was far from escaping the blast radius... If you were any closer, even the hummingbird might disintegrate!"

What were you thinking the second you pressed the detonation button?

Leng Ran wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, tilted his head and thought for a few seconds: "...We didn't prepare enough bombs?"

Zhao Yuheng was speechless: "Don't you want to die even faster?"

He coldly shrugged: "I only have one chance. If I'm even a second later, guess what the Void Beast will do when it realizes what's happening?"

The medical robot's tone grew increasingly impatient: "Please, patient, do not move."

Zhao Yuheng understood this principle, but when he saw Leng Ran press the detonation button so decisively, his breath caught in his throat for a second.

For a split second, he seemed... nervous?

No, why is he so nervous about this guy? Although Mo Li seems unreliable, he has to admit that Mo Li is indeed ridiculously strong and can be relied on in certain crucial moments.

Yes, only at certain times, only at certain times.

Having figured this out, Zhao Yuheng stopped worrying: "You did the right thing, Mo Li."

“The number of Void Beasts is too small, and the Federation has not yet fully figured out their skills, especially the S-rank ones. There is only one recorded of them.” Zhao Yuheng looked at the Void Beast roaring angrily. “The crisis is not completely over yet. Hopefully, there will be no more unexpected changes.”

Leng Ran unconsciously got up, walked to the French windows, pressed her palms against the cold, special glass, and looked out at the main battlefield. Although it was the dead of night, the light from the gunfire illuminated the entire sky as bright as day.

She spoke softly, "All we can do now is trust Colonel Weisheng and his men."

Zhao Yuheng pursed his lips and said, "Mm."

As Leng Ran intently observed the battlefield, a voice tinged with anger rang out from behind her.

"The patient is detected to be unwilling to cooperate with treatment. Special measures will be taken soon... Kidnapping mode activated."

A jelly-like substance spilled from the medical robot's hand, tightly enveloping the cold body, leaving only the head exposed.

The jelly, upon contact with air, quickly hardened. Leng Ran tried to struggle a few times but found herself unable to move, as if she were in a cast. So she gave up resisting and was moved back to the wheelchair by the robot.

Witnessing this scene, Zhao Yuheng's lips curled up: "That's good now, just lie there quietly."

Suddenly, a chill rose from Leng Ran's heart, and the spiritual energy that had been freely spreading around her vanished into thin air, along with the spiritual connection with Zhao Yuheng.

Because her body was restrained, Leng Ran could only turn her head with difficulty to look out the window, her expression showing a moment of astonishment.

The patterns on the Void Beast changed several times, forming new designs, while the energy circuits that should have dimmed began to flicker again. At the same time, one desert after another collapsed without warning, forming bottomless pits.

Sand flowed continuously into the giant pit, yet it seemed impossible to fill the space, as if... the area where the sand originally was had completely disappeared.

Leng Ran could no longer sit still and quickly said to the medical robot, "There's an emergency! Let me go!"

The medical robot remained unmoved, coldly tossing him into the treatment chamber: "Please receive treatment as instructed."

Leng Ran struggled and said, "Hey, no, look outside!"

Her response was a cold, mechanical voice: "Treatment has begun and is expected to last 95 minutes..."

Leng Ran internally screamed, "What kind of top-tier artificial stupidity is this?!"

The jelly shell began to melt slowly after coming into contact with the treatment fluid. Leng Ran, who had been forcibly stuffed into the treatment chamber, finally regained her freedom, but the chamber door was already locked, and she was ultimately trapped here.

Zhao Yuheng's voice rang out again: "It seems the worst has still happened."

Leng Ran pounded on the door of the healing chamber: "How could a 'vacuum zone' suddenly appear in the desert? Is this another Void Beast skill?"

“The Federation’s understanding of the Void Beasts is very limited; I can only make some guesses,” Zhao Yuheng said solemnly. “You’ve probably heard of cosmic energy, haven’t you?”

"Space-type alien beasts can mobilize cosmic energy to a certain extent. This energy can help them open space tunnels and achieve things like teleportation... Now, some warships also rely on gathering cosmic energy to achieve teleportation."

"But if the energy of a singularity in the universe is drained, something terrifying will happen—space collapse."

---------------

On the other side, the Nirvana Mech Regiment.

“Master-level mechs have no chance of penetrating the Void Beast’s defenses!” Mu Yingwei said. “Only the captain can disrupt the circuits. Captain Xia, don’t go over there.”

"I don't believe it, let me try!"

Ignoring all warnings, Xia Tianhua charged forward with his sword, wielding it with ferocious force, sparks flying as it rubbed against the Void Beast's tough hide. Despite his best efforts, he could only leave shallow cuts on its body.

"Damn Void Beast! Its hide is incredibly thick; I can't even cut it!" Xia Tianhua roared, swinging his already chipped broadsword down again.

Just a second before he was about to touch the Void Beast's skin, Xia Tianhua felt a sharp pain. The mech's entire right arm vanished from his sight as if it had been severed by an invisible blade.

The fracture was unusually smooth, with a few blue sparks flashing and crackling at the wound.

"No, get out of that area quickly! This is a spatial collapse!" Mu Yingwei said anxiously, "They actually gave up on opening a spatial tunnel to summon an army of alien beasts to occupy this place... The Void Beasts now want to completely destroy this place and turn Anning Star into a collapse zone, which is a giant black hole!"

"You all step back! Stay on the perimeter and clear out the other monsters."

The Fire God of the Void Beast was already standing on its right wing, and a fine layer of sweat had seeped from her forehead.

The lightsaber Blazing Sun plunged fiercely into the Void Beast's broad wingspan. Gritting her teeth, she exerted force with both hands, using the momentum of the lightsaber's penetration to slash upwards. Where Blazing Sun passed, it left a trail of fiery light, severing a small section of energy circuit. Invisible cosmic energy overflowed from the broken circuit, causing Blazing Sun, which was tainted by it, to dim slightly.

Seeing that the method was effective, Wei Shenghuang gripped the Blazing Sun tightly and frantically began to destroy the energy circuits on the Void Beast's body.

The Void Beast winced in pain, its purplish-gold eyes narrowing as it locked its furious gaze onto Sub-Base Number Three.

The space around the base suddenly became abnormally distorted, as if drawn by an invisible force. Cosmic energy surged like a tide, converging towards the enormous void beast.

Mu Yingwei's pupils dilated in shock: "Oh no, it's going to attack the base! The students are still here, we have to stop it!"

Upon hearing this, Wei Shenghuang increased its speed by two points. The Vulcan mecha had entered an overload state, with the screen in the cockpit completely red and the disintegration alarm constantly echoing in Wei Shenghuang's ears.

Wei Shenghuang's combat suit was soaked with sweat. Although a small part of the right flank had been destroyed, there was still no progress on the left flank. The speed was still not enough!

The space around the base, drained of energy, began to collapse. A crisp sound rang out, and the base's protective shield shattered first, swallowed by the void.

That's too late!

"Commander, let us lend you a hand." Xia Tianhua flew over in his one-armed mech, followed by his equally wounded mech soldiers, and they landed one after another on the left wing of the Void Beast.

"We, Nirvana, are a mech squadron that has killed an S-class alien beast."

The Nirvana Mech Squad once killed an S-class Night Leopard in the most brutal way—through a collective self-destruction.

"No... there must be another way!" Wei Shenghuang's voice trembled slightly as old memories flooded back. "You can't do this! We promised each other we'd live together!"

"I won't break my promise." Xia Tianhua smiled sadly. "Commander, we are Nirvana. We will definitely be reborn from the ashes."

He has fallen, but millions more will take his place; this is... a phoenix rising from the ashes.

The collapse continued to expand, reaching the outer buildings of the base. The once incredibly sturdy fortress seemed to have been hit hard, collapsing and then disappearing without a trace.

"It's time." Xia Tianhua grinned. "Brothers, do you still remember the oath we took on the day we enlisted?"

The soldiers behind him replied in unison, "Of course."

"I am a warrior of the storm, a shield for the Federation."

"I entrust my trust and sincerity to my comrades, and dedicate my life and honor to the Federation."

"My vigil begins now and will last until the last second of my life!"

The roar of exploding mechs rang out one after another. Leng Ran looked up from inside the treatment pod and saw the most dazzling fireworks she had ever seen in her life.
